What happens if your brain
doesn’t get enough sound?
With hearing loss, there isn’t enough sound information coming to your brain from
your ears, or the quality of that information is too low.
This makes it much harder for the brain to orient itself in your surroundings –
which then makes it harder to focus on what’s important.
It affects all the different parts of your brain that make sense of your
surroundings. They all have to work harder.
This leaves fewer mental resources for other things like remembering.
